It is our great pleasure to announce that once again, the long-awaited Texas Elections process has begun on the offsite forum! Currently we are accepting nominations for 11 positions of the Texas Cabinet and 15 positions of the Texas Representative Council! All nations are free to make nominations whether they are registered on the offsite forum or not. If you are not registered, we ask that you sign your post with your nation name and send us a telegram on NationStates so we can confirm it was your nomination and not someone off the street. Information and postings should be made here: http://invisionfree.com/forums/Texas/index.php?showforum=209 - it can also be navigated to by going to the URL in the Factbook entry above and then going to NationStates Texas Forum->Texas Government Forums->Texas Election Commission->Current Elections. Please note that there are two threads - one for the Cabinet and one for the Texas Representative Council. Please participate in both. There is also a place to make New Articles, Amendments & Repeals to the Texas Constitution.

The nomination process will be the first of three parts, each lasting one week. First, any Texan can nominate any other Texan for any of the positions listed (please read the rules on the post and in the Notes section). After a week of this activity, the next week will include any speeches or comments by the candidates, questions for the candidates and responses by the candidates; this will last seven days. Finally, polls will be created and the final voting will last for one week. Only Texans as of today - November 23, 2008 - will be eligible to vote.

Nominations close at High Noon (GMT -6) Sunday November 30, 2008. Constitutional Matters close and Voting Week begins Sunday December 7, 2008.

Any questions about any of these positions can be asked publicly on this forum, privately by telegram to NewTexas, via Personal Message on the offsite board or by e-mail on that board. The URL for the Texas Forum is http://invisionfree.com/forums/Texas/

Thank you in advance for your participation! And, by all means, participate and Have Fun!


Long Live The Great Region of Texas!

Big Tex
President of Texas
